A summary of what to expect with the weather if you are in Marbella during the month of May

The average weather in Marbella in May is perfect as summer begins to approach, with temperatures between 13°C and 23°C and Puerto Banus Street Market being held every Saturday, where everyone in the family is bound to find something interesting. If you find that you miss out on this market, do not despair, you are spoilt for choice. There are two other street markets, one in Marbella centre on Mondays and another in San Pedro on Thrusdays.
